Took a fully remote job at a bigtech company. I know that working internationally is a no no unless approved by HR, but how flexible is working across states? Is it okay to do that even if official policy is to only work from your state?

Do you have a work visa to work there or are you a citizen of that country? Your best bet is to follow policy and not break policy, not sure why this is so hard.

Ask HR, and inform them of your circumstances. Different states, different taxes. You don't want to be stuck with massive tax backpay once they find out you were squatting under an overpass in LA but pretending you were working in Texas.

Realistically, it depends how long. I've worked from other cities/states/countries for a day to a week due to flex travel, and never had problems. But if you move somewhere longer term, things may be more questionable.

Ask your HR. Its usually that you need to report your location for tax purposes.

Yep. My company knows the location of everyone based on their laptop and cell phone.

Is it a policy that the company polices? Always start with the facts, “am I breaking a written policy?” Policy exists for specific reasons which may not all be obvious to you.
